The forty-year-old actor also recalled a similar incident when false negative rumors about Daddy Lumba spread like wildfire.

He urged media to get their facts right before writing on such sensitive issues, as such could tremendously demoralize the family of the person involved. Some sources had rumored the petite actor dead a few weeks ago, following news of his strange illness.

However the reports were subsequently debunked following reports from the media, which confirmed him critically ill at KATH. More so, the kind of illness he suffers was, and is still not known, fueling the fears of those close to him, at the time.

Friends of the actor and the entire Kumawood family, had solicited prayers and funds for his medical bills, from the public. Following news of Wayoosi’s critical condition, The Creative Arts Ministry, as well as notable personalities like President Mahama, had made donations to the actor’s family.

The actor who is now recovering has decided to debunk the death rumors himself, in-spite of his wife’s confirmation that he is getting better. From the audio of the interview, it can be deduced that Wayoosi is positively responding to treatment. Hear him in the short audio below:
